Massimiliano Allegri says Juventus need to aggressive from the outset in their final group stage game against Dinamo Zagreb.

Suso has been thriving in Serie A with AC Milan, while Giovanni Simeone's brace downed Juventus.

When the definitive book of derbies is penned in Italy, Torino manager Sinisa Mihajlovic would be a natural choice to write the preface. The Serb has been involved in pretty much all the ones that matter in Serie A either as a player or a coach, from the Derby della Capitale and the Madonnina to the Lanterna. On Sunday, he can add the Derby della Mole (Juventus vs. Torino) to that list. As can keeper Joe Hart, who will find some historical similarities between this rivalry and the one...

Roma confirmed capital dominance and stayed in touch with Juventus at the top of Serie A after a superb, gritty victory over Lazio, which saw the Giallorossi snuff out their local rivals and hit them with two sucker punches to win a feisty Sunday afternoon derby. Radja Nainggolan topped his magnificent performance with a skidding long-range shot 13 minutes from time to cap a superbly disciplined second half display that showed Roma can win ugly when they need to, even without injured Mohamed Salah...

Roma stars Francesco Totti and Daniele De Rossi have urged supporters of the club to attend the upcoming Rome derby.

It's rare the Rome derby signifies much more than local pride.

With just five Serie A titles between them, neither Roma nor Lazio are powerhouses of Italian football, and the Derby della Capitale, for all its passion and fireworks, is a sideshow event that rarely has any bearing on the destination of major honours. It's all about the show, the atmosphere and the colour, and little else. The truly big matches usually take place in the foggy north -- but this season is different.

In the last installment of the Derby della Capitale back in April, Roma comfortably beat Lazio by a score of 4-1.

"I've been waiting for this game ever since I got the Lazio job," Simone Inzaghi confessed. It's easy to imagine when the fixture list was published in those last days of summer that the first date he circled on his office calendar was Sunday, Dec. 4: Derby day in the Eternal City.

It's the first game both managers look out for on either side of this rivalry because very often in the history of the Derby della Capitale it decides whether their season has been a success or failure. Inzaghi...

Diego Perotti had two assists and one goal as Roma did just enough to beat Pescara.

Roma had Edin Dzeko to thank for scraping a 3-2 win over a spirited Pescara side that threatened to overturn a two-goal half-time deficit and was unlucky to have left the Stadio Olimpico with nothing.

Two goals in three minutes, both excellently taken from glorious assists from the outstanding Diego Perotti (who bagged the third from the penalty spot), gave Roma a much-needed cushion within the first 10 minutes and moved his league tally up to 12 in 14 appearances. Without his goals, the Giallorossi...

Edin Dzeko continued his hot run of form with a hat trick in Roma's Europa League win over Viktoria Plzen.

After six years away from AS Roma, Luciano Spalletti returns in hopes of leading Roma to Europa League glory.

ESPN FC's Gab Marcotti analyses Roma's recent surge of goals, and if their leaky defence could come back to haunt them.

It's been a long time since Roma could say that they were leading the way for Italy in Europe, but after what seems like a lifetime of humiliation on the continent the Giallorossi can hold their heads a bit higher, thanks to the reborn Edin Dzeko.

Thursday night's Dzeko-inspired 4-1 Europa league cuffing of Viktoria Plzen at the Stadio Olimpico saw Roma qualify for the knockout stages as Group E winners with a match to spare. It was the perfect antidote to last weekend's traumatic second...
